by Summary:
Researchers found that PV systems could produce electricity at a lower price than the grid in 344 cities. Good news for air quality and climate. China has been relying on coal-fired plants (72% in 2016). Two anecdotes. I have a friend that teaches for six-weeks in Beijing on occasion. I once said to him that it must be a great experience.
